Stop bashing Bed-Stuy. I would rather live there than pay money in other sections of the highly overpriced sections of Brooklyn.
Park Slope is a prime example of an overpriced area. The influx of condos coming to 4th Avenue and the Atlantic Yards complex will ruin a borderline obnoxious neighborhood of self-congratulatory fools.
Well….I am a black woman and I plan on buying in Bed Stuy and I see the beauty in the area…I am happy that some of you choose not to live in the “ghetto” because I would prefer not to live around people who are clearly undercover RACISTS like you are..I have a ton of white friends who are either moving there or who have already bought property and these are the kinds of people I want my kids growing up with….
Doesn’t matter, 3:46, it’s still a ton of money for that part of the ghetto.
People like you are partially to blame for overinflating these prices.
You do have some concept of what 400K is, right?
Go walk by this area and tell me if you’d pay 400K for ANYTHING over there.
Those that comment a “1 bedroom in Bedstuy for $400k” or the like – are too superficial and trigger happy to read/comprehend more than headlines.
It says 1113 sq ft duplex, etc, etc. But since says 1 bedroom will consider as comp any 500sq ft 1 bedroom, etc. etc.

LMFAO!
I read this blog fairly often, and I read all kinds of comments about what everything is worth or isn’t worth. Here’re my limited experiences: I’ve bought two pieces of real estate in NYC. One was a condo in Chelsea, back in the mid ’90s, and the other was a Center Slope brownstone in 2002. When I bought the place in Manhattan, people told me I was crazy. It increased significantly and I sold it. When I bought the Park Slope brownstone for $1.25-million (using profits from the Chelsea condo for a down payment — no help from Mom and Dad, no trust fund, no job on Wall Street), people told me I was nuts, that I’d be too reliant on renters, that I’d be putting myself in a precarious situation. I didn’t completely disagree, but I was in love with the building. What else could I do? Renters have helped out with the mortgage, one tenant has been with me since the get go, and, well, you know what’s happened with brownstone prices. I’m not bragging, but I’m just making the point that when it comes to buying a house or apartment, people do what seems right to them, and they hope it works out. Sitting on the sidelines and commenting on buyers being foolish? Well, we’re all entitled to our opinions, but I think everybody does what seems right for them, and, sooner or later, in this city at least, things seem to shake out on the upside. It’s weird to throw out negativity without knowing all the facts. Just my two cents.
Kinda hard to tell from Corc. site what was actually sold. they’re listing 800 or so sq. foot places at the DeKalb building for $340ish. If this one is including a roof deck as living space, then the price seems a bit high to me. However, this is about as cheap as you’ll find in Bklyn for this much space and still be w/in a reasonable commute. That’s about $400 psf. Also dunno if maint. includes taxes but if so that’s dirt cheap.
the point of this blog is to discuss the properties, 1:26.

sorry these comments offend you so much.
this is what we do here. talk about the properties, their prices etc.
Does it matter “WHY” someone would pay that amount for an apartment? The point is someone “DID” pay that amount, and I’m sure they are happy the have done so. Do people have such insecurities that they have to find ways to show others that they are smarter, wiser, more investment savvy?
All that matters is, if you wouldn’t buy it, fine. So go buy what you would buy. And let the others buy what they wish.
